Ed was my good friend for twenty years. He was a kind, generous, and Godly man. We shared many meals together as well as trips to Goodwill, the Clothing Exchange, etc. We went to plays, baseball games, concerts, art galleries, and simply enjoyed each other's company. I never tired of listening to him. He always had such interesting things to say. When he stopped driving, I never minded taking him to run errands or picking him up to attend events. Since I moved from Sumter six years ago, I have missed him. We continued to write each other and he sent me a return letter to my birthday card to him in June. It is difficult to accept I will not receive another birthday card from him. Enjoy your reward in eternity for a life well lived. I will see you on the other side, friend. Until then you can be my guardian angel. Sue Sims, North Augusta

I will miss my dear friend and our talks of England & talks about our Kitten Cats.
I just wish we would have had time to had our afternoon tea together. You were such a sweet gentleman. You were loved and you will be missed. But,
I take comfort that you're
in Heaven with your beautiful wife. You were loved and will be missed.
